Meat Business Women

We know that #diversity and #inclusion are crucial in ensuring workplaces thrive. The data repeatedly shows, year after year, that inclusive workplaces are more profitable and more innovative, and that they retain staff for longer and make better decisions.   Our Gender Representation Report found that 53% of people working in the meat industry think that inclusion has moved up the agenda, but there is more progress that we need to make in this space.   Regardless of gender, age, race or background we all need to work together to bring about positive change in gender balance ⚖   Each of us must step up, play our part and support one another to make collective change.   This is #ThePowerOfUs ✨ 🙌   💥What will your impact be?💥 Avara Foods 2 Sisters Food Group ABP UK ABP Ireland & Poland Cargill Coles Group Cranswick Country Foods PLC Coveris Group Dunbia Group Hilton Food Solutions Hilton Foods UK Kepak Group Klöckner Pentaplast ABP Linden Morrisons Moy Park OSI Group Pilgrim's UK Lumachain , Thomas Food Group Ltd.
